Get UNC Path Utility

Thursday, 25 March 2010 11:23 by aj

We pass files around a bunch here, especially documents, and it becomes incredibly annoying to constantly have to copy/paste/type full UNC paths into emails and messaging.  One of the guys on my team found a CopyFilePathContextMenuutility yesterday built by Dynamic Edge called Copy File Path.  This little VB6 app (it installs the VB6  runtime, ew!!!) adds a menu item to the Windows Explorer context menu that will copy the full UNC path of the selected file to the clipboard.  Even if you use mapped drives, it still pulls out the full network path.  Pretty sweet!  This is the kind of thing that I’d have fun writing myself, but why do that when this little thing works great, and is free?  Thanks Dynamic Edge!
